Wigan fans have been snapping up tickets for the St Helens derby on Friday.

With two days to go, fewer than 500 tickets remain of their allocation of 2,600 for Friday’s Betfred Super League at St Helens.

This will be the first time in 24 years a derby between the two rivals has not been televised and Saints are predicted an 18,000 sell-out.

DW Stadium ticket office manager Michael Jolliffe said: “Wigan fans have already snapped up the majority of the away ticket allocation for Friday’s crunch clash, with the club now selling its third requested allocation for the game.

"With just a few days to go those who still haven’t purchased are encouraged to get there’s to avoid disappointment.”

Wigan Warriors can confirm that there are fewer than 500 tickets left for Friday’s Betfred Super League trip to St Helens.

For the first time in 24 years a Wigan and St Helens derby will not be televised, so the only way to watch the ‘Bad Friday’ clash will be in person at the Totally Wicked Stadium.

I'd also like to go tomorrow, can't get ticket through normal channels as don't know my magic code, and as I live 2 hours from Wigan collection is out of the question. Hardly helping spread the game......
